Design: It was 1912 when domestic gold coins with distinctly Canadian designs made their debut. They featured branches of the maple tree and the shield from the Canadian Coat of Arms. The shield was divided into four sections to highlight the four provinces that originally formed the Dominion in 1867, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.

Struck in denominations of five and ten dollars, the role of these gold coins in Canada was brief, coming to an abrupt end in 1914 when the uncertainty of the First World War prompted Canada's citizens and banks to hold onto this precious metal.

Today, ninety years later, the Royal Canadian Mint is reviving these precious coins proudly introduces the 1912 Commemorative $5 and $10 Gold Coin Set to mark Canada's golden heritage.

Drawing upon two authentic 1912 specimens that were graciously provided by the Bank of Canada, the Royal Canadian Mint faithfully reproduced their original specifications. With the exception of the reigning monarch, relevant legends and dates, these five and ten dollar gold coins appear as they did when they were first issued 90 years ago!
